Trump
is often accused of malice aforethought; his acts evil and stupid are no
accident. Premeditated stupid. The thing is, his level of thought is often that of a
frog thinking about flinging his tongue accurately to catch a bug. Trump’s
brain rarely goes beyond reptilian mode during what passes for waking hours.
That
being said a sincere apology to frogs everywhere for smearing their good name
in service to this…let’s call it joke. Frogs are good and valuable in the great
web of life. Trump is obviously neither of these things.
And
really, when you get right down to it, the least important creatures on this
planet are – humans. Humans could not survive without the help of the entire
web of life. Most humans like to think that we are the most superior life form,
but actually, that honor goes to bacteria. They are everywhere. Literally. We could
not survive without them, nor could most other life forms.
Yes,
we are mammals, and mammals are – again, according to a bunch of mammals – a more
complex and therefore superior species, but the web of life would not miss us
for one damn second.
Let’s
say, for the sake of argument, that mammals, and humans – what Howard the Duck
referred to as ‘hairless apes’ – in particular are the epitome of creation. If we
think about our place in the web of life on Earth in terms of functionality, we
are nothing more than parasites. Parasites are lazy fucks that feed off their host,
not giving a fraction of a fuck if the host drops dead. Lazy and stupid. No other parasites have
the wherewithal to realize that the death of their host just might
jeopardize their own survival. Which makes humans that much more pathetic.
And now, one of our favorite songs of all
time…
And
speaking of parasites, another very special song …
I. Mangrey ribbiting.
Kermit is pissed and he knows frogs in high places.
